Ok, For noobs, regulars, the golden oldies and just arrived


I just wanted to say a little something.

I look around the forums of late and ALOT of new users are coming on the forums. Which is good - new generations and new people can be a great benefit for the SR community. New ideas, humour and aspects are introduced and I enjoy it.

But, We seem to have a conflict. Between old and new. The New users come on and as silly as it may seem they do not know of the SR world. How to act and post the way we do. They come in and use their txt language, make two sentence posts relating to nothing in block capitals. Obviously this will ennoy the regular users and they all join in group force abusing and generally being nasty singling these noobs out - or in some cases to retalliate and destroy it for the rest of us. Spamming the joint and getting themselves banned.

I just think - if some users when newer members start. If we just explained what we like and don't like so they are stopped in their tracks and eazed into the way we work gently things would run alot smoother for us, staff and the newer users. If we just cain immediatly and the same old thing happens, they spam wildly they'll get banned. If we maybe let them know first they wont do so. If they have been warned politely but are immature nerds which get there thrills from destroying everyone elses fun...they will be banned im sure by sir smuggly.

Come on guys. Im sure it will make it better for all of us?

Just a thought

Love ginge :)

They can't ban you unless you've done something wrong, which it really doesn't look like you have.

I'm not normally decent to newbies (due to aforementioned reasons), but seeing as you look like you can string a sentence together and write properly, then I suppose it's deserved.

I think if newbies join and spam and do pathetic posts then we should just ignore them. Instead everyone just jumps in and starts giving them hassle. If we do that them they are just going to carry on doing it. Where if we dont like a certain post and we ignore it they will soon get bored.
